Maximum Entropy/Optimal Projection Design Synthesis for Decentralized Control of Large Space Structures.

Abstract

The maximum Entropy/Optical Projection (MEOP) methodology is a novel approach to designing implementable vibration-suppression controllers for large space systems. Two issues, in particular, have been addressed, namely, controller order (i.e. complexity) and systems robustness (i.e., insensitivity to plant variations). Extensions developed herein include generalizations to decentralized controller architectures and a new robustness analysis technique known as Majorant Robustness Analysis.
